Arran Single Malt Port Cask Finish 50% 700ml
After initially maturing in traditional oak casks over a number of years The Arran Single Malt in this bottling was ‘finished’ in a selection of Port wine casks sourced from an artisan producer of this iconic Portuguese fortified wine. Our Master Blender, James MacTaggart, has carefully monitored this period of secondary maturation to ensure the perfect balance is struck between the Port casks and the intrinsic sweet-fruity character of Arran Single Malt. The end result is a Single Malt full of charm, complexity and quality.
Aroma – Vanilla spice and ripe citrus running into dried fruits and nuttiness. With a splash of water more depth of mandarin citrus with fudge and honeyed notes.
Palate – Layered fruits and spice combine, with cinnamon baked apple wrestling with a hint of strawberry jam. The dram opens out to reveal warming barley and a hint of sweet pear.
Finish – A classic Arran Single Malt with punch that dances on the palate. The trademark Arran barley-sweetness shines through the layers of complexity
